. ..using a condom isn't enough, deep kissing can do it too. How many of you practising safe sex make sure no fluids whatever are swapped?
And masturbation will make you go blind.
From an AIDS educational pamphlet for teens:
"CAN I GET AIDS FROM KISSING?
No. Actually, AIDS is hard to catch. In order to pick up the virus from someone, you have to have their BLOOD, SEMEN or VAGINAL FLUID come in contact with your BLOOD. Unless you're doing some pretty weird kissing, this isn't going to happen. So kissing is safe."
There is only one confirmed case of AIDS transmitted from a patient to a dentist, and the patient bit the dentist.during a surgical procedure.
There are no confirmed cases of AIDS transmitted by oral sex, although it is possible in theory. There is some "suggestive" statistical data and the theoretical risk is estimated at 0.04. You're far more likely to get hit by lightning. I take reasonable cautions with lightning (I get out of the water and stop waving around an 8 1/2 lightning rod when it's around), but I don't worry about it overmuch. Life is like an arcade game. You can't win. Something is going to kill you sooner or later and you have to balance fucking up your life with untoward precautions against being able to actually live a life worth living.
Killing the AIDS virus is acutally pretty simple. Just put it in saliva.
The device was found in a shipwreck. The ship appears to have been a Roman trader on its way back to Italy. By dating the goods on the ship the wreck has been dated to the later half of the first century B.C.
The device is inscribed. The typography is the sort that was prevelant in the later half of the first century B.C. So are the words and the grammatical structure.
Two independant means of dating accord with each other.
The specific figure 80 B.C. comes from an estimate of its age being 65 B.C. +/- 15 years, so 80 B.C. is actually the youngest it is estimated it could be. The most conservative number to cite, not an exact age.
I look forward to watching the segment on CBS where they interview some kid who's doing this and everyone acts surprised that kids can actually think for themselves.
Hello, Sir. I represent the manufacturer of the car you are driving. I have just replaced the motor in the vehicle with a treadwheel powered by four asthmatic hamsters. I hope you enjoy the improvement to our car.
The short answer is that a corporation doesn't make a profit on pot. Corporations do make a profit in opposing pot.
Of course it's a bit more complicated than that, but not much.
Here's how our mental "health" structure works these days:
Go to the psych ward at a city hospital and tell them you use pot. The shrink will put you on a program to teach you that drugs are not the way to deal with your emotional problems.
But go a few hours later though and tell them you have emotional problems and the same damned shrink will give you psychoactive drugs to deal with it.
It's totally schizo, but they get paid for both ya see.
Is it any wonder that our legislators are utterly psycho about the drug issue? They grew up being taught to accept this kind of cognitive dissonance without experiencing any cognative dissonance. They'll make cough syrup a crime, but mandate Ritalin.
The world has gone totally, fucking nuts. Does anyone know where I can find a nice, quiet, dry cave to hole up in?
. . . it seems to me that data mining is a significant part of future's corporate intelligence. And if you think you can spy on your partners or competition, your moral will allow you. ..

And vice versa.

. . .the only thing ever proven in science is that a model is wrong.
Disproving a positive is not the same thing as proving a negative.
Scientific theory is not based on proven negatives, it is based on positives which it has been impossible to refute.
You are mixing up your logical concepts. Mind your pees and ques.

Years B.C. are essentially negative numbers. . .
Negative numbers? Don't be silly. How could I have less than no apples? And just try to imagine the square root of negative 2.

As a European I find the article rather America-centric.
Actually I find it a rather good description of America and a resonable comparison, if. . .
